In response to current child-rearing books, which advise parents that crying babies should be treated firmly or ignored, Britain's best-known childbirth educator has responded with a book that not only provides practical and reassuring help for parents but also ensures an ultimately happy baby.
Appalled by the unfeeling nature of the advice, mostly from writers who are themselves childless, Sheila draws on the experiences of hundreds of new mothers to explain why a baby cries and what we can do to satisfy its needs.
Sheila shares with readers not just what she's learned from her long experience of caring for mothers and babies but also the experiences of hundreds of mothers who have successfully managed life with a crying baby.
